Last week, I volunteered with UNICEF at the Genesis Children's Theater. At the theater, we helped the staff prepare for their show "The Drowsy Chaperone," which they were to be putting on in a few weeks. I worked from noon to 5 pm, helping set up chairs for the audience seating, organize and clean the backstage storage areas, and paint the stage. This experience made me aware again of how much I really love volunteering. Giving back to the community is honestly such a rewarding experience; it feels so good to help people and have them express their gratitude for what you've done. It makes you feel like you've really done something worthwhile. The staff at the theatre were absolutely charming and great to work with, and the children who came in the afternoon for voice lessons and practice were so happy and thankful for what we'd done that day. I hope that all my volunteering experiences are as fun and memorable as this one was.
